Thanks everyone!

I have gained and lost weight on medication. Currently the lightest I have been since highschool on zoloft.! When your mood lifts it makes exercising easier and more enjoyable.

I usually go for the junk. I like junk food and if I can fit it in to my calories for the day I eat it and enjoy!

I have been doing a cheat day. But thinking I'm going to cut back to a cheat meal and 1 cheat snack. I think that I over do it as well eating junk all day and night. I end up feeling really crappy.

Mine is usually around 300 with my heart rate monitor!

im in!

Sounds like me! I plan to get down to 145-147, have about 6 pounds to go. I like to work out and just want to look healthy and strong!

Whey is milk protein. Great for protein. I have a dairy allergy in the house so I use protein plus vegan which is yummy.

love the skinny cow treats!

If it makes you sick I wouldn't worry about eating 1800 cal. As long as your satisfied it should be fine. Make sure your drinking enough water. Try having a few high cal snacks like nuts. Lots of calories, not filling but lots of protein. How old is your baby??

I use vegan proteins +, it taste yummy. I usually mix with rice milk but almond milk would be good as well.

I didn't realize this!!! Good to know

I would like to start lifting weights. I have no idea where to start?? I do some at the gym but am not following any specific routine so it is kind of hit and miss. Any suggestions?

I go by what my hrm says. I figure nothing is 100% accurate but I have been using my monitor for about a month and have lost approx 10 pounds so that works for me. I eat back exercise calories!

Same situations here, lost the first 20 now have 10 to go and they are hanging on. I have lost a number of inches but really frustrated that the scale is not changing. Trying to be patient, my little one is 2 months this week. I am breastfeeding and have been eating back all my calories.

Great job! you look great and congrats on sticking with it and getting it done!

Also hoping to run 1/2 marathon at the end of summer!!!

Im really excited to start running again. I'm 3 weeks post partum after a c section so I have a few more weeks to wait. I'm wondering how far I will be able to run. I feel so out of shape. Today will be day one of counting calories again. I tried a few days already and gave up. Hoping to stick with it this time. 13 pounds…

jalyner: I went through a similar scare when I was pregnant last time re: fifth disease. The Dr. did the blood work and it turns out I was already immune to it. Chances are if you are working with children you have already been exposed and don't have to worry. I don't work with children but I guess I had had it when I was…

Kristy, so sorry to hear about your loss. My thoughts and prays are with you and your family. Praying for baby as well that they are safe and sound and stress free in your belly.

Congrats cutmd, wishing you a great pregnancy.

Anyone find that there uterus gets really tight when they exercise. I was exercising yesterday and this happened. Plus lots of back pain, just wondering if others experience this.. Kim

Happy Thanksgiving to all the Americans out there!!!! Since I live in Canada I don't have to worry about all the yummy holiday food this weekend (Boo). I'm 20 weeks and have gained 7 pounds although the scale fluctuates greatly throughout the day. Counting my calories sometimes, I try. Though some days I fall off the…

19 weeks tomorrow!!! Find out the sex (hopefully) in 1 week and two days! This pregnancy seems to be taking forever. I have fallen off the tracking wagan the last few days. I often go over, I have only gained 7 pounds so far so trying not to worry about it to much. Night shifts seem to be when I break. Always feel like if…

I would just start tracking everything, even if you haven't eaten well. Then you can see how many calories you are actually eating. I have found myself guilty of "cheating" and not tracking it. It makes it really easy to continue to eat like crap. So now I track no matter what. So some days my calories are >3500 can't do…

Flu shots anyone??? Thoughts about getting the shot this winter. The last time I was pregnant there was a real push to get the shot because of H1N1. Working as a nurse I saw a lot of young adults admitted to critical care because of this flu so I did get it. This year I think I have decided not to get it. What does…

The first signs of pregnancy that I had was actually implantation spotting about a week or so before my period was due. So I was hopeful, also the first thing I usually notice is bloating (more than usual). feeling full really fast.

Im 18 weeks preggo and have gained about 6 pounds so far. (Which is unusual for me I gained so much more by this time with my other two, fingers crossed that it is boy). I have my calories set to maintenance which works out to be approx 2000 cals. I'm having no problem eating all my calories and go over more often then…

Anyone else still really, really tired. I'm 18 weeks this week and still feeling tired and have a hard time getting out of bed in the morning. Still going to bed just after my kids around 8 every night. I don't remember this from my other pregnancy. 21 days until I have my ultrasound, so excited to find out what it is. I…
